    The Walker Brothers were an American pop group of the 1960s and 1970s that included Scott Engel (eventually known professionally as Scott Walker), John Walker (born John Maus, but using the name Walker since his teens) and Gary Leeds (eventually known as Gary Walker). After moving to Britain in 1965, they had a number of top ten albums and singles there, including the No. 1 chart hits "Make It Easy on Yourself" and "The Sun Ain't Gonna Shine (Anymore)", both of which also made the US top 20. In between the two was the lesser US hit "My Ship is Coming In".
    Formed in 1964, they adopted the 'Walker Brothers' name as a show business touch even though the members were all unrelated - "simply because we liked it." They provided a unique counterpoint to the British Invasion by achieving much more success in the United Kingdom than in their home country, a period when the popularity of British bands such as The Beatles dominated the U.S. charts.

    I heard this song being played on National Public Radio as they went to a commercial break, and it was being played in remembrance of Scott Walker, because he'd just died. I hadn't heard the song since the 1960's when I was a kid, but I recognized it immediately as one of the melodies that was truly great and which I loved. After rediscovering this hit upon his death, I've been playing it many times and watching this and one other video the most often. I love this song.

A masterpiece from a very strong music era that produced so much great music. I’m telling you 60’s-80’s was the greatest era of music ever. 50’s not to far behind.

    To clarify some points: Walker was taken as a showbiz name to tie the trio together; Gary Walker's real name is Gary Leeds and he was the one who thought that they stood a chance of success in Britain, so with financial backing from Gary's stepfather they journeyed across the pond and made some of the best records of all time.
